Growling Gator Restaurant Reviews

Great spot right on the main strip in Grand Bend. Some tables have a really great view of the lake.

Ordered wings and was really surprised how good they were. Breaded with lots of sauce and still had a nice crisp. The hot sauce was one of the best tasting hot wing sauces I've had, curious if they make in house or just have a great supplier. Mozza sticks were really good also, some of the best I've had.

Definitely would recommend this place when you are in Grand Bend!

Went on a Wednesday for lunch and it was not very busy. We wanted to see the water so sat on the patio. The staff were very friendly and the service was great (our server was fast and he checked on us a few times). The food was decent, kind of what you would expect (burgers, club, nachos, etc.). The portions were big, especially the fries. I got a daiquiri, which did not taste like it had a lot of alcohol in it but was tasty. The bathrooms were a little grubby with some flies but overall I appreciated that all the servers were wearing masks, there was a lot of anti-bacterial soap and we were able to be far enough away from other diners. I would go back if I was in Grand Bend.

If you re to spend the day in Gran Bend and not stop by this place, you might as well stay home...



Good at this place is great! Prices are fare for the amount of food you get (a lot) it s a must must must try if your in Gran Bend!

I have been in this place many times and always I get very good service they have a wonderful terrace with very nice view. Most of the time I go there to drink and the bar menu is really good , 10 seconds walking from the parking of the beach and if you are coming from the town side you ll enjoy the nice sidewalks and the cool stuff on the shopfronts on Main Street till you get here. Highly recommend .

Good hangout spot. Cocktails are good but a bit on the pricey side. Food is great! View of the beach from the patio is amazing!

I had an excellent experience at this wonderful restaurant. The food was to die for, very well cooked, the service was wonderful, and a great location. Everyone is very friendly! I will be back many more times in the future.

Amazing restaurant in Grand Bend! Right by the beach and has a great view of the sunset! Love the fishbowl cocktails!

Food tasted bland for the price they charge for it .. the quality is simply not there.

The atmosphere and service on the other hand was really good. The location is right next to the beach with a great view. The atmosphere inside is ambient with lots of TVs places for viewing your sports game

One of the best spots to hang out with great food and good company. the owners are awesome and understand the meaning of customer service. They are almost always on site and welcoming from the front door until the end of dinner. Great food and a great bar to hang out and cool down. The beach is only 10 steps away front he front door.
